The Federalist Papers
I have read all of these all the way through at least twice. Each of these offers something vital to my understanding of the world from creation to now, and each offers something that the others do not. In my humble opinion, none of them can be skipped if you want to truly understand the battlefield we are on right now.
I encourage you to choose one you haven't read, and buy yourself a Christmas present.
I also would LOVE for you all to help me add to this list and find myself a little something to put under the tree.

*** I can not keep up with editing to add all the suggestions.... though Im trying to add the ones I recognize. Be sure to read the replies below for the ones Im missing. Im sure some of them are gems as well, and the people posting them will assuredly answer questions about them if you ask.
Atlas Shrugged is great. I know many people don't like her anti religion stance but the collapse of a successful society is perfectly captured in this book.
fountainhead is also entertaining.
This book changed my life. It is why I am who I am.
We the living is the great reset when carried out to its murderous end. But that is what communism is. I found a copy of an italian movie based on the book. Was very good.
Agreed. I just finished this for the first time and felt like I was reading a day-by-day account of the Biden regime. Yes, she does have an antagonistic attitude towards, and I think profound misunderstanding of, the Christian religion. That is what makes today different from that book: God wins.
Not just Christian. She talks about ancient mysticism which I think refers to Jewish religion maybe even kabalah (sp?) or the worship of moloch by hollywood and politicians, the people who rule the world.
I didnt finish reading it... but the movie was actually really good, and of all the books above, its the ONLY movie that was any good IMO.
Book is much better than the movie. Give it another chance.
